I literally have no idea what this means. So, thanks?

“Darren Rovell Wastes Everyone’s Time.” That was the whole article right there. All of the rest was just verbiage.

As a track guy I just want to point out that the NCAA track and field semis and finals will have on a percentage basis as many world-class athletes as any NCAA championship game, meet, or match will have.

Vampire reads article. Grabs cell phone.

Can you believe that IPL Final? Suck it Rising Pune Supergiant! Mumbai rules!

Frank “Grimey” Grimes thinks so.

Who’s a good, very confused sports dog! Yes you are! Yes you .. no ... look over here ... over here you dumbass!

Point taken. Though from Castine/Maine Maritime it is an hour and 44 minutes to Colby, 2:20 to Bowdoin, and 2:20 to Bates, so not quite three more schools within two hours, but that’s a total of five colleges basically within two hours of one another. That’s nothing compared to the density of DIII schools in…

Yes, absolutely — where I am the schools are really far apart, for one thing. For another, there are a whole host of considerations involved in non-con scheduling. I was a DIII athlete in New England and the best DIII athletic schools were far batter athletically (and worlds better academically) than anything in New…

The DII school at which I teach and serve as chair of the University Athletics Committee played its first season of football last year. For our upcoming second season we were scrambling to find a third non-conference opponent to replace a team canceling their game with us at the last second after they decided to drop…

You cannot pobssily be this obtuse. The US was playing Slovenia. So the reporter asked a player on the US team if he knew where Slovenia was. Alabama is literally irrelevant to that, your dopey and shallow potted history of Europe and human development notwithstanding. Slovenia WAS a state. And had the US been playing…

I’m looking at the tone. Now I’m also looking at phrases like “least significant erstwhile member of Yugoslavia” and “smug little shit”and “toenail-sized country.” Yes, you seem awfully exercised about this.

Again, for all of your verbiage, the reporter was asking Cousins if he knew the location of the country his team was playing. Knowing Alabama’s location is a non-sequiter.

Seven times larger geographically. So what? By that rationale Alaska is our most important state and Canada is the most significant nation in North America. Alabama has twice the population. And while Alabama has a longer history than Slovenia does as a nation state, again, so what? Do you not think that Slovenia has…

Slovenia is a country. Alabama is a state. It was a good response on Boogie’s part, but let’s not get carried away. (Plus I’d bet a higher percentage of Slovenians could identify Alabama than Americans Slovenia, if for no other reason than the Montgomery Bus Boycott).

Bigots gonna bigot.

Why is it spelled “Jeets” and not “Jetes”?

Would the implication that they are gay in and of itself be “salacious”?

But I tought Oubre was just being “honest,” whatever that means. I guess there must be a league-wide conspiracy against the Wizards after their guy threw a hissy fit after the whistle, because that’s the same as a hard foul during the run of play.

Anonymously. Don’t ever forget that. This is why having a rational conversation here or virtually anywhere online is legitimately impossible — because you can be an expert on a topic where everyone poses as an expert, but if you give enough personal details to confirm your credentials you are in for ad hominem attack…
